Many of the current indications for use of transjugular intrahepatic stent-shunts are also indications for consideration of orthotopic liver transplantation. Tripathi et al. report a similar operative mortality and early graft function in a series of cases transplanted with a TIPSS compared to apparently matched controls, although a higher frequency of post-operative renal dysfunction.

Portal vein recanalization transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (PVR-TIPS) is a safe and effective procedure for decompression of portal hypertension (PH). In this short case series, 2 women with chronic noncirrhotic portal vein thrombosis were treated with PVR-TIPS. Both patients hoped to conceive.

To investigate the association between overt hepatic encephalopathy (OHE) and liver pathology after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) creation in cirrhotic patients. From July 2015 to April 2024, 73 patients from 4 hospitals in China who received TIPS creation and liver biopsy were retrospectively enrolled in this study. Based on whether OHE occurred within 3 months after TIPS creation, the patients were categorized into OHE (n = 29) and non-OHE (n = 44) groups.

Background Aims: In clinical practice, the reduction of porto-caval pressure gradient (PCPG) following trans-jugular intra-hepatic porto-systemic shunt (TIPS) does not always meet the recommendation of current guidance. We evaluated the impact of different degrees of PCPG reduction, measured at the end of an elective TIPS, on ascites control, recurrence of portal hypertension-related bleeding (PHRB) and survival.
Approach And Results: Cirrhotic patients receiving TIPS for refractory ascites (RA) or for the secondary prophylaxis of PHRB were consecutively enrolled.
